Tom DeLonge, pop punk rock star and interim CEO of To the Stars…Academy of Arts & Science (TTSA)—a public benefit corporation founded in 2017 to study the UFO phenomenon—posted a video to Instagram last Wednesday of a light in the sky he said he’d recorded the night before.

So last night I get a text from somebody that there was a UAP right off of the beach where I live. I ran to my balcony and saw it split into two pieces and raise vertically. I grabbed Marie, jumped in my truck and went straight down to the beach. We were the only ones on the beach last night as this light disappeared, reappeared, broke into three pieces and stacked vertically with one little red dot flying around the top and then disappeared for the rest of the evening. This video doesn’t show much, but we were up quite late watching the light dance about a half a mile to a mile off of the beach. It was huge, and it was fiery orange. Of course I called up Lue Elizondo as I was there, and he was telling me all of these things I was supposed to do with location, geographic details, weather, altitude and distance etc. Of course, I was completely worthless when it came to those details. But yes, big deal last night in Encinitas, CA. Lue checked immediately, there were no flights in the area except one that I had my eyes on the entire time. No military, no boats, and a bunch of hovering lights that were stacking on top of each other... wild. Who knows...

“So last night I get a text from somebody that there was a [UFO] right off of the beach where I live. I ran to my balcony and saw it split into two pieces and raise vertically. I grabbed [my girlfriend] Marie, jumped in my truck and went straight down to the beach,” said DeLonge in the caption accompanying the video.

"We were the only ones on the beach last night as this light disappeared, reappeared, broke into three pieces and stacked vertically with one little red dot flying around the top and then disappeared for the rest of the evening," he continued. "This video doesn’t show much, but we were up quite late watching the light dance about a half a mile to a mile off of the beach. It was huge, and it was fiery orange."

DeLonge said he called Luis Elizondo—a former Department of Defense (DoD) intelligence officer who claims to have been program head for the Pentagon’s Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP), and who currently serves as the Director of Global Security and Special Programs for TTSA—and Elizondo "was telling me all of these things I was supposed to do with location, geographic details, weather, altitude and distance, etc. Of course, I was completely worthless when it came to those details."

According to DeLonge, Elizondo "checked immediately, there were no flights in the area except one that I had my eyes on the entire time. No military, no boats, [just a] bunch of hovering lights that were stacking on top of each other."

"But yes, big deal last night in Encinitas, CA," he said of the incident. "Wild. Who knows..."
